It is widely accepted that moral education is quintessential to
facilitating and maintaining prosocial attitudes. What moral
education should entail and how it can be effectively pursued
remain hotly disputed questions. In Confucian Ritual and Moral
Education, Colin J. Lewis examines these issues by appealing to two
traditions that have until now escaped comparison: Vygotsky's
theory of learning and psychosocial development, and ancient
Confucianism's ritualized approach to moral education. Lewis argues
first, that Vygotsky and the Confucians complement one another in a
manner that enables a nuanced, empirically respectable
understanding of how the Confucian ritual education model should be
construed and how it could be deployed; and second, just as ritual
education in the Confucian tradition can be explicated in terms of
modern developmental theory, this ancient notion of ritual can also
serve as a viable resource for moral education in a contemporary,
diverse world.
